5.0 out of 5 stars
Don't listen to what the critics have to say!, September 29, 2001
Hi, I'm from the UK and I'm not sure what US critics think of Scary Movie 2, but the UK critics hate it. I don't though, I thought it was better than the first movie ( which is my favourite comedy ) and it's a brilliant movie. The first scene featuring their re-make of the Exorcist had me laughing so hard as well as everyone else in the cinema. The undertaker is also a funny character with his disfigured arm which adds many scenes of laughter. Sure, the plot is kinda weird but it's very funny and mocks those films we love including "Hannibal, Charlie's Angels, House on Haunted Hill and Mission Impossible 2". The scene where Cindy and her new love interest are trapped in a walk-in freezer (Hollow Man) mocks that tear-jerking scene in Titanic (where Leo and Kate are freezing in the water) and made me laugh very hard. So, anyway, go and see it and I'm sure you'll love it. I will definitely buy the DVD of it.

Not Nearly as Good as the Original but Still Good - 3 ½!, November 7, 2001
By A Customer
I give Scary Movie 2 a 3½ stars. I believe the movie does contain the same jokes as the first, but it's still funny. I think it is a good comedy, but I think that everyone held it up to the original Scary Movie. And by no means could they have made the second as good as the original. If you learn anything in watching a series of movies, none are better than the original. (E.G Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Jurassic Park, which the 3rd was great, the 2nd JP does'nt make a very good movie.) Anyways I know the dvd is packed with extra features, with such spoofs as "Wison" and tons of extras. Here is what comes with this dvd: *Deleted Scenes *Alternate Scenes *Behind the Special Effects *Trivia Game *Still Gallery *Original Website Links I think it will be a definite addition to any dvd collection, especially if you like the original Scary Movie.

Outrageously funny, bold, and entertaining, September 26, 2001
By A Customer
Scary Movie 2 is a delightful film for those who love to see horror movies mocked and abused by a bunch of actors that love to have fun. The film makes fun of many different classic horror films, such as The Exorcist, House on Haunted Hill, The Sixth Sense, What Lies Beneath, ect. I do recommend, that before you see this film, you should rent some horror movies. If you don't do this, it will be hard to understand the humor since it is so closely related to the horror films. Scary Movie 2 is a pure comic gem!
